How Second Wind works

Resolve · Row 2

Second Wind: after taking damage from an enemy champion, heal for 4% of your missing health over 10s.

  • The heal is based on missing health, so it is worth more the more damage you have already taken.
  • It triggers on damage from champions, which makes it strong against repeated poke in lane.
  • Pick it into ranged or poke-heavy matchups; against all-in burst, Bone Plating usually blocks more.
